I just try to pause for a moment at the bottom and then pull as hard and fast as possible while maintaining form. I use 60-70% of 1RM. It's not directly comparable to a Westside-style DE Box Squat because it's not unloaded at the bottom. Hmmm, maybe that's a good idea...

I know you've been around the game a while but I can't recall your Westside exposure. Louie talks about the body not being able to progress lifting at near maxes for more than 3 weeks. I can't comment for anyone else but it's definitely true for me. I started alternating lighter dynamic effort work in an undulating wave a few months ago and it's been working nicely for my squats. Unfortunately life has been f-ing with my ME deadlift days so I can't comment on them.

ME every 12 days +/- extra rest as intuition requires. This is offset 6 days from 3RM back squats.

in no set order between the conventional squat and deadlift sessions:
-2 DE box squat sessions. Blue bands. One session in Oly shoes, one in chucks.
-1 Speed DL sessions with red bands on a jump stretch platform, approximately 200#s band tension at the top. Next session will be trying out adding deficit from standing on a 100# plate in chucks instead of oly shoes on the jump stretch platform.
-1 RDL session light weight(225#), but lowering weight as fast as possible to increase stopping impulse force at the catch just below knees. Up fast after suspended stop.
- Sometimes substitute a deficit SLDL session. 3x5
